UK Trip--Stonehenge!

I am in the UK for a family vacation. The first stop had to be Stonehenge, a sophisticated, prehistoric observatory. The stones are truly awe-inspiring and it was a real privilege to be able to get access to the interior of the circle.

The Heel Stone. The sun rises directly over it on the Summer Solstice
